Gesundheitstaschenbuch für die Warmen Länder

by Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. J. GROBER, Dr. H. HORN, and Dr. F. OBERDOERSTER. 1st edition, 332 pages, illustrated. Berlin, Veb Verlag Volk und Gesundheit, 1960. DM 18.80

Though, according to the preface, designed for all travelers to warm countries and even for students of medicine and for medical workers first visiting such areas, obviously the pocket book on tropical hygiene by Professor Grober and his associates is intended mainly for persons and groups sent out by authorities or firms in East Germany for work in countries with a hot climate and also for those responsible for the dispatch of such workers from home. Accordingly, advice is offered not only on topics strictly belonging to the realm of tropical medicine and hygiene, but also regarding the mode of life in warm countries in general. Subjects of the latter kind are dealt with not only in the appendix (containing to a good part data to be found in general traveling guides) but also in some parts of the main text.
